Professional Experience

I'm a graduate of Northwestern's Medill School of Journalism and a former copywriter. Since having a family, I've been writing a time management/goal setting blog geared toward busy parents called GiveMe10.info. I have had posts featured in The Huffington Post, Chic CEO and Modern Mom as well as other online publications. I write accessible, direct, humorous pieces. I'm a skilled researcher who can distill complex information into understandable prose. I'm easy to work with, attentive to detail and never miss a deadline.
